    Hey guys
    Has anyone used this site before http://www.idealo.de/ ?

    It basically does a price check on german websites like hardwareversand and usually has slightly better prices then the websites themselves (for example a MSI GTX 760 was 15 euro cheaper on hardwareversand by going through this website than if I went directly to hardwareversand - hope I'm explaining this well)

    Anyway. I put together a prospective build for order next week and added all the components to the basket. Upon reentering hardwareversand a while later the items in my basket had reverted to their original more expensive form

    Has anyone used this site before? Will I actually get these cheaper prices (overall saving of 70 quid on a 1300 budget) if I order straight away and don't exit the site. My thinking is that prices are a bit better to stand out from all the competition on idealo.de

    The prices are only valid by linking through the comparison site. The prices fluctuate all the time, too, as different sites try to undercut each on various products.

    Cool. I hoped as much. Was worried that maybe that it was an Irish VAT thing or something.
